I've sent Bitcoin Cash to my Bitcoin Address!

Bitcoin (BTC) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) are two separate cryptocurrencies after the fork that occurred on August 1st 2017. However, the addresses are identical in format, so it's very easy to accidentally send BTC to your Exodus BCH address and vice versa. If you do this by mistake, your transaction will show confirmations, but your funds will never appear in your wallet. However, don't worry! Your funds are safe and can be recovered by going through a few steps.

As of Exodus version 1.39.1, we now include the ability to perform cross-chain sweeps automatically without having to manually import and export private keys. This method of recovery is preferable, as it ensures the safety of your private keys and significantly simplifies the process of reclaiming your "missing" assets. It is also a security risk to export your private keys, so we have developed this new, fully automated method.

Determine what assets need to be recovered: If you've accidentally sent BCH to a BTC address, you want to select "Bitcoin" in the Developer menu by navigating to Developer > Assets > BitcoinIf you've accidentally sent BTC to a BCH address, you want to select "Bitcoin Cash" in the Developer menu by navigating to Developer > Assets > Bitcoin Cash
